I got weighed today and I found out that I gained 5 lbs from the last time I saw the nutritionist (back on 6/21/16). My last NUT weigh in is on August 18th...so I have to make this last month count. After today (7/12/16), no more caffeine, carbonated drinks and sugar.

You can do this!!! Drink lots of no calorie drinks, watch your sodium intake and do high Protein low carb.

Update:

Upping my Water intake and cutting out sugar and carbonated drinks entirely. I have a bag of Splenda that I'l be using for my tea (sparingly). My last weigh-in is a month from today, 7/18/2016 and I have to lose weight or else I'll get denied by my insurance company for lack of effort.

I won't be able to move like I mentioned previously because the landlord rented the room to someone that could pay more than I could. I'll have to buy a mini-fridge of my own and put a lock on it (since my roommate is known for eating other people's food and not replacing it). I've been constantly reminding my roommates not to offer me any food, because I won't be able to eat regular food for a long time.

In another month, I know I'll have lost at least 5+ lbs. Due to my osteoarthritis, I can only do certain exercises and I recently found workout routines via YouTube I can do from home (for those with arthritis).

Things are looking up for me :-)

Someone on here suggested doing the pre-op liquid diet for a few weeks...I'll try it and see what happens :-)

Hi

I was in a similar place but last visit got scared that they wouldn't do the surgery if I didn't lose. I suddenly realized I was just going to have to be hungry. It feels terrible but I'm using it as a reminder that I'm working toward being smaller and that's a good thing! Good luck!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
